history

Interrupted by the German occupation in World War II (Zduny was given the name Treustädt in 1943 ), today's municipal area belonged to the Poznan Voivodeship from 1919 to 1975, with different layouts. From 1920 to 1939 the city gained importance as a border town. Today's voivodship border was the German-Polish border at that time. After the Second World War, Zduny lost its importance. - The German minority was expelled after the World War .

From 1975 to 1998 the municipality came to the Kalisz Voivodeship . The powiat was dissolved during this time. The rural community of Zduny was converted into various gromadas in 1954 and newly created on January 1, 1973. The town and country municipality of Zduny were merged in 1990/1991 to form the town and country municipality. This has belonged to the Greater Poland Voivodeship since 1999 and to the re-established Powiat Krotoszyński.
